Sell delegate passes for events that connect the biggest names in tech.
Picture picking up the phone to a senior decision-maker, and within minutes, they're excited about a room full of the people shaping their industry. That's the job. Our client runs flagship international networking events across the tech sector — over two decades in the game, connecting professionals from 150+ countries, at gatherings ranging from intimate 300-person leadership summits to flagship events pulling in 7,000+ attendees.
They're now looking for a Delegate Sales Executive to join a fast-paced, high-energy events business and drive delegate revenue across a portfolio of world-class conferences. If you love the thrill of the phone, the buzz of hitting target, and the satisfaction of building something from a cold list to a full pipeline, this is built for you.
What you'll do- Sell paid delegate passes to senior professionals across the tech industry
- Run high-volume outbound campaigns, qualify decision-makers, and turn conversations into bookings
- Build and manage your own pipeline — chasing inbound enquiries, re‑engaging lapsed customers, and converting marketing leads
- Become a trusted point of contact for attendees, spotting upsell and cross‑sell opportunities along the way
- Feed market intelligence and customer feedback back into the business to shape future events
- Work closely with marketing and production teams, sharpening your pitch as event agendas and speaker line‑ups evolve
- Confident on the phone and quick on your feet with objections
- A natural closer with a competitive streak and a genuine appetite for hitting (and beating) targets
- Organised and disciplined — you won’t let a lead go cold
- Experienced with a CRM system (Salesforce ideal)
- Coming from 6–18 months in telesales, delegate sales, event sales, recruitment or media sales
- A bonus if you’ve got exposure to the tech events space — but attitude matters more than sector background
- A competitive package designed to help you thrive both professionally and personally
- medical, dental and vision cover
- an employer‑matched retirement plan
- flexible working arrangements
- generous holiday allowance
- tuition reimbursement to keep developing your skills
This is a genuine opportunity to build a career in a growing, global events business — with real earning potential and a clear path to progress as you prove yourself on the phones.
Our client is an equal opportunity employer and welcomes applicants of all backgrounds.
